Assistant Professor of Anesthesiology

Biography

Dr. Micha Sam Brickman Raredon is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Anesthesiology at the Yale School of Medicine. The Raredon Laboratory studies regenerative lung engineering, and develops primary-source algorithms focused on cell-to-cell communication networks, including NICHES and Connectome. Dr. Raredon's laboratory seeks to reverse-engineer tissues for regenerative medicine through the close study of single-cell systems biology.

Dr. Raredon completed his MD/PhD training at Yale in the laboratory of Dr. Laura Niklason (Biomedical Engineering), co-mentored by Dr. Naftali Kaminski (Pulmonary, Critical Care & Sleep Medicine), Dr. Andre Levchenko (Systems Biology) and Dr. Yuval Kluger (Applied Math). In 2022 he founded his lab as an independent group leader under the mentorship of Dr. Kaminski, Dr. Ruslan Medzhitov (Immunobiology), and Dr. Robert Schonberger (Anesthesiology). Dr. Raredon is now a faculty member of the Vascular Biology and Therapeutics Program at Yale and the Program in Translational Biomedicine.

Dr. Raredon received a master's degree in Materials Science and Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he received the Draper Fellowship to develop vascular tissue micro-fabrication techniques in the laboratories of Dr. Linda Griffith (Bioengineering), Dr. Paula Hammond (Chemical Engineering), and Dr. Jeffrey Borenstein (Draper Labs). He completed his undergraduate work in Biomedical Engineering and the History of Art at Yale University and the University of Cambridge.

Dr. Raredon plays the cello and enjoys finding time to be outdoors and near water as much as possible.

Research

Overview

Dr. Raredon's research group focuses on the mechanisms governing the behavior of complex multicellular systems and in leveraging these principles to engineer living tissues for regenerative medicine. Our work combines systems biology, stem-cell engineering, materials science, surgical fabrication, and biological engineering. The team is particularly invested in engineering, or controlling the self-organization of, cross-length scale perfusable vascular networks and tissue architecture, and in devising principles of microvascular construction and control that can be applied across organ types. We are a clinically-integrated laboratory with two broadly interconnected goals: the modeling of network-level mechanisms of tissue morphogenesis and phenotype regulation, and the application of those models to the design and fabrication of patient-specific tissues for therapeutic use.
